nina skretkowicz, RN

Nina has been just a stunning example of professionalism and a downright, good ol' laugh til you drop "nurse/buddy" (that's the best term I could come up with!). I've been hospitalized numerous times over the past year and have been so lucky to have her as a nurse multiple times. First, her quick response to my needs (especially when I'm in pain) makes a world of difference to me. When it comes to following up and collaborating with other departments, I only have to ask once. I always feel like she gives of herself. It's nice when the focus isn't just me and cancer. When I ask her how she's doing, she's genuine and it makes this experience more valuable and the relationship trustworthy. She takes the time to make sure my needs are met. Nina truly takes the time to listen to me and makes me feel heard. Nina is in the perfect field. I want to thank her for her compassion, empathy, observant and detail-oriented nature, but most of all, her kindness to me as a patient. It's made a world of difference and I'm truly thankful.
